Washington won 4-1. New coach believes ugly still has basketball magic byjoe Annadel los Angeles a Jim Harrick believes he s the right Man to Lead the Urcla basketball program Back to prominence but the wrong Man to match John wooden s accomplishments. He does t think any coach Ever will As far As winning National championships the 1980s brought several changes said Harrick the sixth head coach the Bruins have had since wooden retired in i97s after winning 0 Mcaa championships in 12 years. Nobody will dominate like that again. However i believe Urcla still has magic and will attract Young people and Wil fac a top program.". Although they Haven t won a National championship since wooden stepped Down the Bruins have had some Good moments in those 13 years especially the Early ones. There have been a lot of disappoint ments too like last year when they went 16-14. Coach Walt hazzard was fired shortly after the season ended. Harrick was hired a few weeks later but Only after big names like Jim Valvano and Larry Brown were approached. At one Point Brown accepted the Job but later changed his mind. Harrick the head coach at nearby Pepperdine for the last nine years was Only too Happy to get the Job whether he was the first Choice Ornot. You re not a candidate for the Urcla Job you re chosen he said. We need continuity and consistency. Any Strong program that you see Bobby Knight Denny Crum Dean Smith All have people who have been there a Long Lime. That s what we need. That s my goal. I m a local Guy this is where my wife and i want to live this is where i want to work. Watch us and Sec what  Harrick so is Only the second coach. To follow wooden at Urcla with pre Vious head coaching experience at a division 1 school. The first was Gene bar Low who succeeded wooden but left under fire after two seasons despite Post ing a 538 record. ./.-. Gary Cunningham succeeded Bartow bin also lasted Only two years before deciding to leave. Then came Brown who left after two years to return to the Aba from where he came to Westwood. Larry Farmer was next and he left after three years. Finally there was Haz Zard who lasted four seasons before being fired the Only wooden successor who was asked to leave by the school. And now Harrick. Who relishes the Challenge he faces and believes he 15 eminently qualified for the Job i m doing the same thing i be been doing Tor nine years said Hack who was an assistant under Cunningham and took the Pepp Erdinc Job when cunning Ham left for Urcla. There s More Tau More messages More demands on your Lime but it s not that different. The magnitude of the Urcla Job lakes experience know How. 1 think i be got both. The Cecal True Urcla Bruins under stand that today we need a sound solid consistent program. One that graduates players has players Willi High moral value systems arc Good people and one Hal wins consistently one of the top if programs in America. Thai s my goal. This institution de serves that. It s one of the top 10 Aca Demic institutions in America i believe. I be always said the single most important ingredient in a basketball program is the head coach. Well see. Judge this team in january february March. I think the players have to adjust to our staff. This team s Good enough to win. I Don t know if it s Good enough to win the Pacific to conference. If we had go raid Madkins it would be Good enough to win the conference Madkins a Sophomore guard suffered multiple Pelvic fractures and abdominal injuries in a traffic Accident last july and will miss the entire season. He is sex peeled Back next season. Adversity will make us stronger it s already made me stronger Harrick said. Every Magazine i be read we re not in the top 40. That s typical of the Way the program has come to not be held in High regard. It still has its magic. My goal this year is to go to the Mcaa
